Respected Sir,

My pressure vessel is subjected to thermal stresses and only one statement is given internal pressure is 70 MPa and 15 degree Celsius. How we calculate thermal stresses in Pressure Vessel.

Hi Chirag,
I need more information to understand your question about thermal stress.
For thermal stress, you should have the temperature difference and constraint BCs. You can use static or transient structural and apply the internal pressure and thermal load ( temperature) inside of the cylinder. 

Best Regards,

Respected Sir,

I have excel file of pressure and temperature value at different time from 0 to 200 seconds. I want to analysis the impact of pressure and temperature on my pressure vessel. For that, I want to ask how can I merge that file with static structural module of ansys.
